A Whole Lot of Yagura

Along the Kinubari Yama hiking trail is a spot called the Mandaradō Yagura.

If I recall correctly, it is the largest concentration of yagura (burial caves) in Kamakura, with over 150 caves.

Because it’s such an important spot, it’s fenced in, and only opens for a few weeks at a time throughout the year. Unfortunately, we didn’t know that when we set out on our hike, so we had to make due with peeking through the fence.
